- Storing Instructions
- Once the sweet chili sauce has cooled completely, it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, for up to 2 weeks.
- If you're unable to find Sambal I recommend replacing it with either Harissa or Calabrian chili paste!
- You can replace the sugar with honey (1:1) but the flavor and consistency will be slightly different.
